How do you work with very polyester fabric and beautiful cotton fabric together. The polyester is so flimsy and slippery. Any advice? Also what kind of thread would you use to piece and to quilt.
I'd be tempted to tell her you'd not work with it. For starters, it's not YOUR mistake. Find something to substitute.
